About feedback components

Feedback components tell people that something happened: a save, an upload, progress or an error. Pair every visual change with text a screen reader can announce, and keep timing short enough that nobody waits for an animation.

Install the Skeleton Loader

  1. Create components/ui/skeleton-loader.tsx in your React + Tailwind project.
  2. Paste the code. It only imports React; keyframes are defined inside the file.
  3. Import the named component where you need it. The default export is a ready-made demo you can delete.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Skeleton Loader component free?

Anyone can open the live preview. Copying the code is included with a Scrollhaus plan.

What do I need to use it?

A React project with Tailwind CSS: Next.js, Vite, Lovable or Bolt. The file only imports React; its animations ship inside the component.

Is it accessible?

It uses native elements and ARIA attributes where needed, keeps keyboard focus visible and works without a mouse.
